UConn guard Rodney Purvis, who twisted his left ankle after missing a dunk against West Virginia Sunday night, is considered "probable" for the Huskies' next game, against Texas on Sunday at Gampel Pavilion.

Purvis had the ankle wrapped and came back into the game after injuring himself, playing 23 minutes, but he was clearly limping and ended up 0-for-5 from the floor. He had scored 19 points in the previous game against Dayton.

After returning home from the Puerto Rico Tip-off, UConn's medical staff diagnosed the injury as an ankle sprain and determined that no X-rays were necessary. Purvis will not participate in the Huskies' scheduled practice on Thanksgiving Day, but he is responding well to treatment and could return in time for the game, UConn says..

Texas, ranked 10th, will be playing without its point guard Isaiah Taylor, who injured his wrist last weekend.

As for the four players suspended by UConn before the West Virginia game, Omar Calhoun, Rakim Lubin and walk-ons Dan Guest and Marcel Lewis, UConn offered no updates. The four were suspended for "violating team rules." Calhoun has been out since Oct. 26 with a left knee sprain.
